Getting Stronger By Fighting-Chapter 600 - 598: Xuanlong Beast_1

After all, this was not the first time he had faced life and death. If Wang Zhan hadn't appeared, he would probably be a corpse by now. Therefore, death didn't scare him; at least, not Xiang Tian.

Xiang Tian closed his eyes in despair, but the expected pain did not come. A minute passed, then another. Curious, he opened his eyes and was surprised to find a figure standing before him, wielding a massive weapon.

"The Deep Fire Blade?"

Xiang Tian's eyes widened. He tilted his head up, a look of surprise on his face, seemingly already knowing who had arrived.

Seeing Wang Zhan, he immediately clenched his fist in excitement and exclaimed, "I knew you would show up just in time!"

Wang Zhan's arrival stirred excitement within Xiang Tian. Disregarding his own injuries, he raised his sword toward the Lion-body Demon-faced Beast, his voice booming with intimidation, "Weren't you acting all arrogant just now? The one standing before you is the person you've been looking for! If you've got the guts, then take him down! Let me see just how capable you really are!"

Xiang Tian also grew bold. With Wang Zhan backing him up, there was no need to fear the Lion-body Demon-faced Beast at all.

The Lion-body Demon-faced Beast stared coldly at Xiang Tian for a good while but didn't react. In its view, Xiang Tian was merely an ant. However, when its gaze fell upon Wang Zhan, its expression became considerably more serious. Although it could tell at a glance that Wang Zhan had only just broken through to the Martial King Realm, Wang Zhan exuded an extremely dangerous aura—a feeling it couldn't even articulate.

Patting Xiang Tian's shoulder, Wang Zhan smiled and said, "Alright, leave everything here to me. Go check on Uncle Qi and the others."

"Don't you need my help?" Xiang Tian turned his head to look at Wang Zhan, who just smiled back.

"Are you underestimating me? It's merely a level 1 demonic beast, not even close to a level 2 beast. In my eyes, it's no different from an ant. Why would I need help to deal with something I can crush with a wave of my hand?"

"This…"

Xiang Tian was stunned. In just a few days, Wang Zhan seemed to have become much more arrogant, but he indeed had the capital to be proud. Xiang Tian could tell at first glance that Wang Zhan had broken into the Martial King Realm and was even more stable than a few days prior.

The Lion-body Demon-faced Beast narrowed its eyes, then clenched its fists, glaring coldly at Wang Zhan. It had never encountered such an arrogant human who dared to spout such nonsense in its presence. Truly laughable.

Wang Zhan walked step by step toward the Lion-body Demon-faced Beast, raised the Deep Fire Blade in his hand, glanced at Xiang Tian, and then said, "Hurry up and leave. Don't stand here and waste my time."

After reaching the Martial King Realm, Wang Zhan discovered a truth: his previous combat power had become considerably stronger, and the might of the Deep Fire Blade had also increased significantly.

Therefore, if Xiang Tian remained standing there, Wang Zhan was concerned he might accidentally injure him, which would be unfortunate.

Xiang Tian shrugged and said with a smirk, "Alright! Don't worry, I won't interfere. I just want to see how you're going to torture this thing to death. After all, that big guy nearly killed me just now. I'm still furious just thinking about it!"

Wang Zhan just laughed nonchalantly and walked towards the Lion-body Demon-faced Beast step by step. This time, he did not waste any more time. He instantly raised the Deep Fire Blade in his hand. Suddenly, several enormous Fire Dragons materialized out of thin air and swiftly crashed towards the Lion-body Demon-faced Beast!

Before the Lion-body Demon-faced Beast could react, the Fire Dragons, as if they had eyes, flew straight at it. However, the Lion-body Demon-faced Beast was no ordinary demonic beast. It was merely half a step away from advancing to a level 2 beast; its strength was far beyond what any level 1 demonic beast could contend with. In an instant, eerie blue flames erupted around the Lion-body Demon-faced Beast. Seeing this, Xiang Tian's expression turned considerably unsightly.

Just moments ago, it was precisely because these eerie flames had appeared around the Lion-body Demon-faced Beast that he had been overwhelmed and almost killed here.

"Be careful! Something is off with those flames!" Xiang Tian immediately shouted, repeatedly warning Wang Zhan.

Wang Zhan just smirked and said nonchalantly, "A mere pile of will-o'-the-wisps dares to challenge me?" 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝚠𝕖𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝕖𝚕.𝚌𝗼𝗺

The next moment, Wang Zhan's Deep Fire Blade fell again. A huge wave of fire swept across. Although there were eerie blue flames around the Lion-body Demon-faced Beast, under the collision of the two types of flames, the eerie blue flames gradually dimmed considerably, while Wang Zhan raised the Deep Fire Blade in his hand once more!

The Lion-body Demon-faced Beast's pupils contracted sharply. It, too, could see that the Deep Fire Blade in Wang Zhan's hand was no ordinary item. It could actually destroy its blue flames! After all, those blue flames were its natal true fire, one of its primary offensive means. These blue flames could not only corrode all human weapons but could also cause significant damage to the human body. Moreover, their temperature was far beyond what red flames could compare to. Yet, the Fire Dragons unleashed by Wang Zhan had actually suppressed its blue flames?

The Lion-body Demon-faced Beast looked at the scene before it, finding it somewhat unbelievable. But the Fire Dragon roared and lunged forward once more.

Next, there was a loud noise, and the Lion-body Demon-faced Beast was sent flying backward, its figure an extremely sorry sight. Wang Zhan stood not far off, hands clasped behind his back.

Staring at the Lion-body Demon-faced Beast for a good while, Wang Zhan finally spoke with a disdainful expression, "As I've said before, in my eyes, you are nothing but trash. Relying on your level suppression, you might be able to bully Xiang Tian, but if you want to regain your standing against me, you probably need to go home and train for another two years."

The next second, Wang Zhan suddenly smiled. "Oh, right, I seem to have forgotten something. You no longer have the time to 'go home'."

As he spoke, Wang Zhan lifted the Deep Fire Blade in his hand. On the Fifth Battlefield, there weren't many level 2 beasts; even level 1 demonic beasts were exceedingly rare. This big guy before him was on the verge of becoming a level 2 beast. If he couldn't eliminate it here, and it managed to enter the fifth war zone or break through to other defense lines, it would bring no benefit whatsoever to Wang Zhan and the others; it would only cause greater casualties. Therefore, Wang Zhan absolutely could not let it leave.

Just as Wang Zhan was preparing to strike, a series of dragon roars suddenly echoed from the distance, as if the very air was trembling!

Not good! This fellow actually has reinforcements! Xiang Tian reacted immediately, quickly running to Wang Zhan's side. "Judging by this intimidation, that big guy is clearly extraordinary. Let's quickly eliminate the Lion-body Demon-faced Beast in front of us and get out of here quickly," Xiang Tian urged.

With so many demonic beasts already on this defense line, it would likely become one of their breakthrough points. And they were short-handed here; they simply didn't have the strength to contend with the demonic beasts. Even with Wang Zhan here, two fists are no match for four hands. Eventually, the demonic beasts would still break through this defense line.

So, naturally, there's no need to continue wasting time here. It benefits no one.

How could Wang Zhan not understand this reasoning? He looked towards the distance, but the distant sky was shrouded in dark clouds, making it impossible to see what was approaching. But this series of dragon roars seemed to share a striking similarity with the dragon roars emanating from his Heavenly Dragon Armor.

Could there be some connection between the two?

"The Xuanlong Beast has arrived!" Suddenly, the Lion-body Demon-faced Beast broke the silence, and it began to tremble with excitement, its gaze fixed on the distance.

In an instant, the Lion-body Demon-faced Beast's expression became incomparably savage. It glanced at Wang Zhan and Xiang Tian, clenched its fists, and said, "Very well, it seems you are extremely confident. In that case, let me show you the real strength of a level 2 beast!"

"Insignificant humans, did you think that just because you can suppress me, you can suppress all demonic beasts? How utterly laughable!"

The Lion-body Demon-faced Beast roared and bellowed incessantly.

But Wang Zhan paid it no heed, his attention fixed on the gradually approaching Xuanlong Beast.

Xiang Tian's eyes gradually filled with a trace of fear. He subconsciously said, "A Xuanlong Beast?"

"I've heard my father mention the Xuanlong Beast before. That creature is a typical level 2 beast, extremely difficult to deal with. If it really is coming to the battlefield in person, then our situation will become exceedingly dire."

"No! We should retreat for now. Once the Xuanlong Beast personally enters the battlefield, I'm afraid even you won't be its match. Right now, there aren't many core forces left in the fifth war zone. You must carry the banner; otherwise, the fifth war zone is truly doomed."

Thinking this, Xiang Tian instantly clenched his fists and then looked at Wang Zhan beside him.

Wang Zhan was not only his hope but everyone's hope. He believed that as long as Wang Zhan was present, the war zone would always remain under their control. But if Wang Zhan were to fall into a crisis, then things would become considerably more problematic.

Moreover, they were currently short-handed. Wang Zhan might not be able to contend with the Xuanlong Beast alone, but if all the great Martial Gods gathered, the Xuanlong Beast wasn't invincible either.
